Ji Mofan looked at Qi Fengyu, who was swaying precariously, and his eyes darkened slightly. Without making a sound, he pulled his sword back half an inch to prevent Zhenyi from accidentally killing him.
After rambling on for a while, he finally managed to convince Qi Fengyu, who was in a state of panic, that his nonsense was true.
Regardless of his past or present life, Ji Mofan has never had feelings for Qi Fengyu that go beyond those of fellow disciples. While his words just now were undeniably true in terms of facts, his account of his inner journey was utter nonsense.
So why did he always risk his life in front of Qi Fengyu before...?
Although the Yuncang Sword Sect could not find many good people even if the entire sect were combined, there were very few people as bad as Qi Fengyu, who was a self-made troublemaker.
No one else would put him in such a troublesome situation, except for Qi Fengyu, who was the one who consumed the most oil.
But he had used similar methods to bother others countless times before, and now, under the pressure of his emotions, he wouldn't even realize this oversight. Ji Mofan only needed him to waver for a moment for his goal to be achieved.
Just as Qi Fengyu initially thought, he was unwilling and unable to kill a villain who had not yet begun to commit evil.
Locking him up is unrealistic, because apart from himself, no one would believe how much darkness Qi Fengyu is hiding behind his back. The lies he has painstakingly woven over the years cannot be overturned in just a few words.
Therefore, he could only lure Qi Fengyu astray.
Qi Fengyu was very clever, especially wary of Ji Mofan after his rebirth. Ji Mofan knew this, so from the beginning he planned to take the path of making him lose his mind.
Moreover, broadly speaking, he has already traveled this road twice.
The first person to run into trouble because of this was Li Geyue, and the second was Shen Yun.
He then realized how useful inner demons were.
You can achieve your goals legitimately without getting your hands dirty.
As for how he found Qi Fengyu's location...
This also relies on Shen Yun's selfishness.
Although he realized that Qi Fengyu was in danger, he was still unwilling to put himself in a wrong situation, so he sent a communication talisman to Ji Mo Fanfei as soon as he found Qi Fengyu.
Knowing of the irreconcilable feud between Ji Mo Fan and Qi Feng Yu, he decided to stand by and watch, hoping to reap the benefits.
Ji Mofan didn't have much to say about this matter.
None of them can escape the fate of the damned; it's just a matter of order.
Seeing Qi Fengyu fall into chaos in front of him, Ji Mofan remained calm and subtly moved his fingertips, putting away the Reversal Spirit Gathering Array he had just drawn.
He certainly didn't have any inner demons; he had nipped the seeds of them in the bud long ago when he was reborn.
The black energy swirling within the spiritual power originated from Xiao Wangyan's demonic energy; he had borrowed a little to deceive people.
However, to Ji Mofan's surprise, Qi Fengyu was never dragged into the abyss by her inner demons.
His own strength was already lacking, and now his body was covered in injuries, so he should have been powerless to resist the invasion of his inner demons.
But Qi Fengyu actually endured it all, gritting her teeth until blood seeped from the corner of her mouth, and still retaining a sliver of clarity in her eyes.
Ji Mofan frowned; he hadn't expected Qi Fengyu to have such a strong will.
Suddenly, I caught an unusual sound in my ear.
A glint flashed in Ji Mofan's eyes. He clicked his tongue softly, and before Qi Fengyu could recover and speak, he struck him on the back of the neck with a palm strike.
The body, burdened by illness and inner demons, couldn't withstand the strain and immediately collapsed, the two figures vanishing from the spot.
The air was still for a moment before several figures dressed in light blue reappeared.
"Senior Brother Ning, look here!"
Ning Weisheng was frowning as he searched his surroundings when he was suddenly called by a fellow disciple behind him.
Looking back and following his finger, he caught a glimpse of a dark red mark.
"Blood?" He looked down and probed. "There's residual water elemental energy. This might be the bloodstains left by the young sect master."
"The young sect leader is injured?" A fellow disciple nearby couldn't help but raise his voice. "Then we must find him quickly!"
“We arrived very quickly. Elder Shen contacted us and we immediately used a teleportation talisman to travel without wasting a second. How come we are still a step too late?”
"Is the young sect leader avoiding us?"
“But he’s injured. Even if he’s afraid of being punished when he gets back, he should at least get his injuries treated first.”
"And how could he run so fast when he was injured? That shouldn't be the case."
"So perhaps the young sect leader didn't run away voluntarily, but was taken away by someone?"
"But there was no trace of anyone else around..."
"Stop discussing it." Ning Weisheng frowned and stopped the buzzing. "The blood is very fresh. The young sect leader must have been here not long ago. Let's spread out and search the surrounding area for any traces."
"yes."

When Qi Fengyu woke up, she found herself tightly bound by the Immortal Locking Chains.
Only his eyes, mouth, and fingers can move; he has difficulty even twisting the rest of his body.
Instead of taking him back to Chaoming Palace, Ji Mofan found a cave nearby and stuffed him inside.
The cave entrance was concealed by plants and a barrier was set up. Even if someone discovered the anomaly, it would take a considerable amount of time to break through a defensive array at the Nascent Soul stage.
"What are you trying to do now?" Qi Fengyu didn't shout immediately. He calmed down in just a few seconds and looked up at Ji Mofan standing in front of him.
Controlling his movements and making it impossible for the Yuncang Sword Sect to find him are merely expedient measures to buy time.
Qi Fengyu knew very well what Ji Mofan wanted to do. As long as he was forced to fall into the demonic path, then even if a great immortal came, no one would be able to protect him.
It is only natural for the righteous path to slay demonic cultivators.
That's why he was able to fight against his inner demons with all his might, because he knew he didn't have the same good luck as Li Geyue, who still had time to find a way out and seek a glimmer of hope in the demon realm.
Ji Mofan's path to him will only lead to his death.
Now that his inner demons have been interrupted by the sudden appearance of the outsider, they are unlikely to reappear in the short term, provided his willpower remains strong.
It shouldn't have been a suspenseful situation...
But the Ji Mo Fan in front of her was completely different from the image Qi Fengyu had previously known.
In the past, he was like the fine snow covering the ground in winter, sparkling and reflecting the brilliant sunlight.
But now it's gloomy, like an iceberg at sea, and no one knows how much chill is hidden beneath the iceberg.
"It's nothing, I just think we should sit down and have a good talk." Ji Mofan waved his hand and unleashed a sword aura. There was originally a shallow spring in the small cave, but the cold air froze it into a stone block.
